8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION
Ventilation:
Whenever possible, sawing or machining treated or untreated
wood should be performed outdoors or in well ventilated areas
to avoid accumulations of airborne wood dust.Ventilation should
be sufficient to maintain exposures below the recommended
exposure limits.
Protective Equipment for Routine Use of Product
Respiratory Protection :
When sawing or cutting treated or untreated wood, wear a NIOSH approved
P95 or P100 Particulate filter respirator. FOR PLYWOOD PRODUCTS ONLY:
If Formaldehyde vapor levels exceed the recommended exposure limits,
wearing a NIOSH approved respirator is required. Formaldehyde is a by-
product of the untreated plywood article and not the result of this treatment.
Respirator Type :
For plywood products only: A NIOSH approved full-face air purifying
respirator with combination formaldehyde/organic vapor cartridge and
a P100 filter. Air purifying respirators should not be used in oxygen
deficient or IDLH atmospheres or if exposure concentrations exceed
ten (10) times the published limit.
Skin Protection :
Wear leather gloves. Wear long sleeve shirt, pants, and steel-toed shoes
when handling treated or untreated wood.
Eye Protection:
Use safety glasses with side shields or chemical goggles when sawing or
cutting treated or untreated wood.
Protective Clothing Type:
Wear leather gloves.
General Protective
Measures:
Due to the explosive potential of dust when suspended in air, precautions
should be taken when sawing, sanding, or machining wood or wood
products to prevent sparks or other ignition sources. If required, use wet
methods and/or explosion suppression systems to reduce generation of
dust. Local exhaust ventilation is recommended when sawing, sanding, or
machining this product. General dilution ventilation is recommended in
processing and storage areas.
